It's my friends 40th and I would like to share the card I made for her using Bugaboo's Stella - Belly Button Image. I love their funny images and there are so many to choose from. My friend will find this funny!

The Card Blank is a 6" Square and my Base/Frame Layer is an Encapsulated Cerise Pink Glitter Card and then a Plain Black Card as the main Layer. The Image is coloured using ProMarers. (I gave Stella a bit of a Blue/Grey Rinse lol) The sentiment is from Stampingallday and I used a Memento Tuxedo Ink Pad to stamp it up. I added a Pink Organza Ribbon and finished off with some Pink Pearl Gems.

I am here to share this Fabulous New Release from FabrikaFantasy. It's fantastic for those Male Golfers (Actually if you colour the shorts Pink it would suit the Female Golfers too.) I might have to try this lol! If you haven't already visited the store then please click here to discover the other great images available.

The Image is called Champion Eagle and I coloured it using ProMarkers. The Card Blank is a 7" Square and my Base/Frame Layer is a Bazzill Basics Dark Green Shade. The Patterned Paper is from Galeria Papieru's The Way to the Stars Paper Pad. Now I have found these Paper Pads I am addicted they have so much choice of designs! The Birthday Wishes sentiment is from Stampingallday and I stamped it using a Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad. To finish I added Silver Grey and Green Pearl Gems

I am upset this morning as I was cutting some dies and my original Big Shot broke! It has completely stopped cutting in the middle. I am gutted, I loved this machine! I do have my A4 Big Shot so I am not without a machine but its nowhere near as good as the Little Big Shot.

Anyway, today I would like to share a Christmas Card I have made using Conie Fong's Angel of Christmas Stars Image from Sweet Pea Stamps which I have coloured using ProMarkers. I went for a non traditional colour scheme. I added Diamond Sparkles Angel Whispers Glitter to the Flowers. The Card Blank is a 7" Scalloped Square and my Base/Frame Layer is Bazzill Basics Starmist. The Background Paper is from Lili of the Valley's Krafty Christmas Paper Pad. I use Wild Rose Studio Snow Flurry Die to cut the Snowflake Border. The sentiment is stamped using a Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad and is from Stampingallday. I added a Blue Polka Satin Bow and finished by adding Blue Pearl Gems.

Thanks for stopping by. I have a card to share with you which I made today. It's another black and white. I find it is totally calming to colour in Greyscale and with the kids off I need calming lol!

I have used Pirate Parrot 2 from FabrikaFantasy I coloured this little chap up previously and just had to try him in Black and White this time. I always think of Pirates of the Carribean when I am colouring him!

To see more of the gorgeous images available from Fabrika Fantasy please visit the STORE

I decided to make a CAS style card for a male. The Image was coloured using ProMarkers. The Card Blank is a 6" Square and I used a Black encapsulated Glitter Card as my Base Layer. The Happy Birthday is from Stampingallday and was stamped using a Memento Tuxedo Black Ink Pad. I added Black Pearl Gems to finish.

It is getting soooo exciting now. Less than a month to go before the First Challenge goes live at Unicorn Challenge Blog.

It is my turn to share my creation with you for August so here it is!

I have used an Art By Miran Image and she is called Bashful Belinda. As you may know I love colouring in Grey Scale/Monochrome and I couldn't resist a bit of this for her.

I coloured her using my ProMarkers. The Card Blank is a 6" Scalloped and My Base/Frame Layer is Bazzill Blackbird. The Patterned Papers are all from Dovecrafts Monochrome Paper Pack. I have added a Poka Dot Organza Ribbon and Hand Tied the Bow and to finish added Pearl Gems. I stayed away from my usual Flourishes and Flowers as I didn't want to hide her or lose her in all my usual foliage lol!

Thank you for visiting my blog today and sharing this card with me. Would be lovely to see you over at Unicorn Challenge, I hope you can come and join in with us on 1st September. Please leave me a comment to let me know what you think, I do appreciate you leaving them and love reading them all. Hope to see you again soon.

There has been a new release at FabrikaFantasy Store. The fabulous Dancing Squirrel is new in the store and what a Diva she is!

For my latest card using these wonderful images I teamed her up with Happy Chipmunk and they are having one great Party!

This card shape was one I saw a while ago by a very talented DT member in a challenge and I have wanted to have a go at it. And it might look easy but it really wasn't! I found it difficult to get the angles right but then I was never very good at that sort of thing at school lol! I used a Bazzill Purple Shade to make the Card Shape and the patterned paper is from the Colourful Meadow Paper Pad. Its a double sided paper and on the reverse has a wood effect. I used the other side to decorate the back of the card (although I didn't take any photos!!) I coloured the images using ProMarkers and as I couldn't find a punch that would look right all the way up the angle and across the top I made my own border from Purple Bows. The "Lets party" Sentiment is from Stampingallday and the Verse is a Circa Design's Stamp. Both were stamped using a Memento Tuxedo Black Ink pad. To finish I added Silver and Purple Pearl Gems. I have shown the card both stood up and laid flat and also taken pictures of each panel.

I hope that you enjoyed your visit to my blog to share my latest card. Please leave me a comment to let me know what you think. FabrikaFantasy will be releasing even more fabulous digi's in their store so to be kept up to date visit their Facebook Page and become a follower. You can also see the great projects that have been created using their Images on the FB page and also their blog which you can find here. Thanks for stopping by and I hope to see you again soon.
